EMCORE awarded long-term supply contract by Space Systems/LoralEMCORE announced that it has entered into a new long-term supply agreement with Space Systems/Loral, to manufacture and deliver high-efficiency, multi-junction solar cells for SSL's satellite programs. This new contract follows several other earlier long-term supply agreements between SSL and EMCORE. The solar cells will be designed and produced at EMCORE's state-of-the-art manufacturing facility located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. EMCORE has been supplying SSL with solar cells for its satellite programs for 15 years. In early 2013 EMCORE reached a milestone of delivering its 1 millionth high-efficiency, multi-junction solar cell to SSL, which will ultimately represent more than a megawatt of power delivered into space.
